Amazing idler, not amazing saves
To start off, I’m giving this 3 stars because the game crashes a lot, which is a prelude to the game completely wiping saves. This is apparently a known issue which has not been addressed. Please be wary of this before working your way down the rabbit hole, to the point where losing everything would be a huge blow. I suppose I am unlucky, since people have reported losses within 2-4 weeks while mine occurred almost 3 months in. I’d still encourage you to read the remainder of this review if you’re interested.
As for the gameplay, it is unlike any other idle game that is considered the norm nowadays. This idle game truly brings back the greatness in idle games by introducing many forms of breadth in complexity, while still having depth within each of the areas occupying the breadth. Moreover, the skill systems in place are unique beyond the first two skill sets you learn, never have I seen such interesting systems such as what the game introduces with pets, tunnels, or even the endgame icecreams. These aren’t your typical “spend money to level up” systems.
All in all, the concept is beyond what I could’ve ever asked for in an idle game. My rating would be 5 stars for gameplay.

Actually really good, try it
This game is the best idle game I’ve ever played because I’ve never played one made by a real developer, i didn’t even know something like this existed. The game has so much content that it can be overwhelming at first but as you play you’ll learn that it’s not hard to learn how everything works. I think the game is at a great place right now and while I do think it could be even better, it’s still easily 5 stars and I strongly encourage the dev to never abandon this game. It’s truly a masterpiece.

Avoid this.
Good game with fun features and longitivity. Ran by a dev who 1. Cant even make a good save feature which loses your save because it must be so difficult. 2. Cant even fix game breaking bugs like fishing not working due to upgrading a perk. 3. Ignoring people who lost their save.. Yes lava. Piratekat the PERSON who literally made videos advertising your game.. Not anymore thanks to you. Oh yes the crashing part hmmm.. Losing your save. Great! Dont bother with this game. Only pays attention to people in his brown nosing discord server :) Good luck. And to add idiot stated on twitter that ios users cant be helped with free gems if save is lost. WOW! If you lose your save do consider this a warning.. If not an actual honest review. Thanks.

Really good but...
Easily one of the best games I’ve played in a while. I’ve been playing it nonstop for a couple weeks now.
However, the game deleted ALL my data just a few minutes ago, starting me over COMPLETELY. I have no idea why and I’m really upset- I was on my 3rd or 4th ascension and had a ton of progress that honestly having it deleted makes me too depressed to wanna play again :( i know theres likely not a way to get my specific save back but if there is please let me know. I was having so much fun with this game and I don’t feel like I can properly give it 5 stars when it will Apparently just delete all your stuff :(

Really enjoying this one.
Been playing for months. It’s extremely deep and intertwined. The way the game is it forces you to learn what each little thing does. If you spend the time in the details the game gets larger and larger. It’s set up where you can’t just focus on one thing to move through the next part, and just when you thought you have hit the wall. Some small thing on a different part is the key to moving up. The gems are worth it. If you want to progress faster use the premium upgrades. However, it’s very possible to progress with out them. It will just take more work. This game is about patience. That’s the key.

Top tier
I’ve played a lot of idle games. It’s refreshing to find one with some real depth and progression to work through. It’s an amazing idle game. Perhaps a little complex to begin with but don’t be put off. Stick with it and you’ll find it truly is one of the better idle games around.
On top of being a solid game you don’t get advertisements thrown in your face like a lot of other cash grab idles offer. And while I personally haven’t used it you can talk to the creator on discord and suggest improvements or changes.
Fun references and jokes to top off the gameplay and customer friendly business plan make this a must try for idle gamers. (It is a grind though be ready)

Unique!!
Oh my goodness dude, this game is friggin amazing! There is absolutely nothing else like this on the App Store.
It’s little gems like this that give me hope for devs coming up with new ideas.
You should be very proud of your game. You have a new addicted fan! :)

Probably the only idle game that i'll keep for a long long time
There are so many idle games with basically nearly no effort put into the game or ads. Every 5 seconds in those "games" an ad pops up, and it's irritating. Then you get to this game, probably one of the rarest idle games. No ads, no need for in-app purchases, all fun and games, how a game is supposed to be. It's the kind heart of the developer that made this what it was. Letting people have gems, not even asking for gems unless you talk to little lava. He didn't make this game as a cash grab, he made it for fun, and that's what a game should be, not a cash grab, not a reason to steal your parents' credit cards, but to have fun, be entertained. I got an offer in the gem purchase area that had really good value, and since the developer does this in his spare time, i bought it without hesitation. The only sort of downside is that lavaflame2 has a life like the rest of us and doesn't create updates in a consistent matter. Even then, the community is small but strong, and the content still has me playing for a several months and I have yet to finish it all, especially with the tunnels update.

It's an amazing game however there seem to be some slight bugs unless it's just me. Currently I'm having trouble completing the civilisation secret due to the fact that I cannot tick some of the boxes. It's either my phone or it just disallows me to tick them such as the one in the raid boss and the one under the dojo due to the fact it changes to the dojo even after the icons are hidden.

Crashed app, reset progress.
Played for a solid 3 months and thoroughly enjoyed it until the most recent update caused my app to crash far more than it normally would. Crash to the point that my game reset back to square one. The gems I purchased gone also. I’ll not play again unless there is a save system in place.
